A novel series of annulated tricyclic compounds was synthesized and evaluated as NMDA/NR2B antagonists. Structure-activity development was directed towards in vitro optimization of NR2B activity and selectivity over the hERG K(+) channel. Preferred compounds were subsequently evaluated for selectivity in an alpha(1)-adrenergic receptor binding counter-screen and a cell-based assay of NR2B activity.
合成了一系列新型稠合三环化合物,并将其作为NMDA/NR2B拮抗剂进行评估。构效关系研究旨在对NR2B活性进行体外优化,并提高其对hERG钾通道的选择性。随后对优选化合物进行α(1)-肾上腺素能受体结合反筛选和基于细胞的NR2B活性测定,以评估其选择性。
